Answer:

$28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Value of Winning bid = $52

Winning bid 65% of the maximum bid.

To find:

How much more is the maximum bid from the winning bid ?

Solution:

We are given that the winning bid is 65% of the maximum bid.

Using this percentage value, we need to first find the value of maximum bid and then we need to subtract the value of winning bid from the maximum bid to find the answer.

Let the value of maximum bid = $x

As per question statement:

65%\ of\ x = 52\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{65}{100} \times x =52\\\Rightarrow 5x = 400\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{400}{5}\\\Rightarrow x =\$80

Therefore, maximum bid = $80

Our answer is:

$80 - $52 = <em>$28</em>

A line passes through point A (14,21). A second point on the line has an x-value that is 125% of the x-value of point A and a y-
seropon [69]

Answer:

The equation of the line in point-slope form is y-21 = - \frac{3}{2}\cdot (x-14).

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the statement, let A(x,y) = (14,21) and B(x,y) = (1.25\cdot x_{A},0.75\cdot y_{A}). The equation of the line in point-slope form is defined by the following formula:

y-y_{A} = m\cdot (x-x_{A}) (1)

Where:

x_{A}, y_{A} - Coordinates of the point A, dimensionless.

m - Slope, dimensionless.

x - Independent variable, dimensionless.

y - Dependent variable, dimensionless.

In addition, the slope of the line is defined by:

m = \frac{y_{B}-y_{A}}{x_{B}-x_{A}} (2)

If we know that x_{A} = 14 and y_{A} = 21, then the equation of the line in point-slope form is:

x_{B} = 1.25\cdot (14)

x_{B} = 17.5

y_{B} = 0.75\cdot (21)

y_{B} = 15.75

From (2):

m = \frac{15.75-21}{17.5-14}

m = -\frac{3}{2}

By (1):

y-21 = - \frac{3}{2}\cdot (x-14)

The equation of the line in point-slope form is y-21 = - \frac{3}{2}\cdot (x-14).

What is the solution of two thirds x=12
joja [24]
Hi there!

To solve this problem, we need to simplify. 

2/3x = 12

To isolate x, we should multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 2/3 to make x equal to a value:

Reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2

x = 12 * 3/2
x = 18 

Hope this helps!

How to add fractions with unlike denominators?
Ainat [17]
Change the fractions so they have common denominators. For example. If adding 4/8 + 2/3, a common denominator of the two could be 24. Change both fractions to have a denominator of 24. To do this:

(4/8)×(3/3)= 12/24
(2/3)×(8/8)=16/24

Now that both fractions have denominators of 24, you can simply add the numerators to get your answer. in this case, it would be 28/24
